Game of Life

I used to play Life as a kid and I guess I expected it to be the same but it wasn't. There's nothing to it. You just spin the dial and it moves around the board and either takes money away or gives you money. Really nothing to decide. Just not much fun to me.

Compatability

I think this product would be good if you had made it for not only windows 95-98, this needs to be made for EVERYONE!

The folks who did so well with Monopoly disappoint here. The animation quality is fine; that's not the problem. The game is filled with movies which interrupt and comment on the play; they are very bad jokes and we shut them off pretty quickly. An alternate version of the "classic" game includes shooting gallery-type mini-games for bonus points, but the games doen't respond properly to the mouse, so accurate aim is impossible. After a few plays, I passed this along.

I was very disappointed in this PC game. It was boring. Everything about the game was chance. You have little control over what happens. Game time is short and it is very likely you did not win anyway. It was a waste of my time. If you really think you need this game - buy it used or at least a new one cheap.

Fun for a few times

Its the game of LIFE, just like the board game but for PC. The graphics are neat. The cut scenes get a little annoying for certain tiles after the first time you play it. After playing it a few times though it does get boring. You can play with multiple people on the same PC but for what its worth just buy the actual board game. No one really plays this game online, so its pretty much you and the computer.

Slow

This game is very slow to load and will sometimes lock up my computers. The graphics are a bit much but there is an option to turn most of them off. My kids enjoy the game.

Good game, Good graphics, But gets boring

Game of Life is a great game, but unfortunately it gets boring after playing it for just a couple of times. The 3-D cartoons that run during the game are a nice, cute addition, but after seeing them the first or second time, you want to choose the option to turn them off. It is also nice that after you spin the animated spinner on the game, it looks as if you are driving the car on the board to the space that you have spun. As your car drives around the board, the years change from 1950-2000. And as the years change, so does the style of the cars and the type of music. Another big point of the game is that it is not really very fun to play against a computer player because when you play with another real person, you can interact with him. In my opinion the game isn't worth buying because you will only play it for a few times.

Pretty fun bet gets boring!

I got the Game of Life about a month ago and I played it like 8 times. It was pretty fun but now if you ask me to play is again, it gets really boring. Pretty good graphics! I do recommend this game but just remember it gets boring!

This game is a little on the boring side.The graphics are good.A nice twist on the board game.The AI is a bit dumb.
